In some ways, technology has reshaped the way I approach and solve problems — forcing me to think in terms of adoption strategies first, rather than always trying to find the simplest, cleanest design, because of the disadvantaged position I occupied as a non-coder.
Chris Messina, “Happy birthday to me! I’m joining Google“, Jan 7th, 2010

I think all of us, non-coders or non-non-coders, could benefit by focusing more on solving customers’ problems, and  focusing more on how we get our solutions into customers hands.

Oh, and congratulations Chris on the new job!
